Pick her up. You could wear gloves, some hens are possessive about their eggs. If the hen is broody and you don't want her to sit on the eggs put her in a cage or somewhere by herself. A hen house that has a section that can be closed off from other hens is a good idea.


Does only the hen hatch eggs?

No. Only hens lay eggs but hen hatched eggs are only found on small farms. Most fertilized eggs are artificially incubated and the chicks never see the hen who laid them. Chicken do not really benefit from the mother hen all that much anyway. Chicks are born able to feed themselves and instinctively know how to be a chicken. If you are asking if the rooster helps the hen incubate the clutch of eggs, then no, once the rooster has mated with the hen he is not involved.
